Roadmap

AstroStuff is at its very first piece. This page sums up what already works, what is prepared but not playable yet, and what is planned.

Done (0.0.1)

The Nichirin of the Frost Pillar, complete:

• the detailed model of the blade and its scabbard, with the blade's frost glowing in the dark;
• carrying it sheathed at the left hip, visible to everyone, as soon as it is in the hotbar;
• the draw on attack (an iaijutsu cut at ×1.5 with double frost), the four-strike chain and automatic sheathing after five seconds, each with its own motion;
• frost on hit (the game's freeze gauge and Slowness);
• the frost trails and hanging crystals left by every cut, drawn by the mod;
• the draw, swing, impact and sheathing sounds;
• optional Epic Fight compatibility.

Prepared, not playable yet

For Frost Breathing:

• the 26 clusters of ice needles hidden in the blade, with their growing, breathing and shattering animations;
• three sounds: the breathing inhale, frost flowers blooming across the ground, the air freezing in a ring.

Planned

• Frost Breathing: seven forms and a final form, wielded with the Nichirin. Their effects, costs and keys will be documented as they arrive.
• More pieces: the Nichirin is the first piece of AstroStuff, which is meant as a collection of original content.
